From my favorite movies..

Am I Missing Something?

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I honestly do not understand why so many hate on this movie so much; it's funny, has a decent amount of action, the right amount of sexiness, and the chemistry between Harrison Ford and Anne Heche is AMAZING! They are great together! You don't see Harrison Ford in that many comedies but he knocked this right out of the park; I laughed at every funny encounter. I will admit, David Schwimmer was my least favorite part of the whole thing; it was like watching Ross from FRIENDS in a feature film. But perhaps that was the point of his comic relief as it does fit with his character fairly well. Regardless, this movie deserves a lot more credit. It's a great movie to watch and you'll laugh, enjoy the suspense, and feel the sexual tension. In my opinion, that's a recipe for a really great movie.

Ivan Reitman directed this romantic comedy-adventure that stars Harrison Ford as Quinn Harris, a boozing and grumpy pilot hired by beautiful New York executive Robin Monroe(played by Anne Heche) to fly her to Tahiti for business reasons, but unfortunately are forced down on a seemingly deserted island by a storm. While trying to repair the plane, and gather supplies to survive their stay, they find themselves(you guessed it!) falling for each other, even as an unexpected danger arises... Well cast at least, with two most appealing performances by Ford & Heche, and the location is also quite beautiful, and while it is certainly innocuous, it is also utterly predictable, though it's about as amiable as can be under the circumstances. Not bad for what it is.

Robin Monroe an ambitious New York girl is on a South Seas vacation with her Boyfriend, when she's called away on business. The only plane available is piloted by Quinn Harris with whom she shares a mutual dislike. They crash on a deserted island. There, this mismatched pair finds themselves facing danger, while they endure the elements and each other's company…..The movie on itself is not that bad. OK the movie is predictable, and it contains a lot of clichés. But this movies does what it was designed to do. It don't require a lot of brain power, but is enjoying to watch. A well mixture of competent shooting at a marvelous location and great acting from the two leads.The two leading actors Heche and Ford building up a unique romantic chemistry throughout the film. The normally wooden Harrison Ford is funny and convincing as Quin Harris. He is very comfortable on the screen thanks to Anne Heche. She is the real star of the movie. This movie shows that she is one of the most underrated actresses in the business.The movie would have been much better and more enjoyable without David Schwimmer. He almost ruins the movie entirely on his own with his horrible acting. He was incredibly annoying and whiney with his Ross-alike performance in this movie.All by all, a predictable but tasty meal.

Harrisson Ford and Anne Heche play the main characters in the movie,, they both did a wonderful job,, you almost forget that Anne Heche is lesbian,, but David Schwimmer's performance to me was awful. A man proposes to his girlfriend, and she get's called away briefly to do some business for her boss.. a photo shoot on an island,, but trouble lurks when there is a storm brewing, and she hires a crazy pilot, played by Harrisson ford,, the plane crashes, and they are stranded on an island for several days,, at first they blame each other,, as they try to survive on the island,, finding food,, and making a fire and the like,, then something happens and they are drawn to each other and sparks fly,, they fall in love with each other. not a bad little movie , you have some decent action,, some hot women, lot's of laughs,, just forget Schwimmer's performance and you will be just fine.
